Inhibitory action of potassium sorbate degradation products against Staphylococcus aureus growth in laboratory media

The inhibitory action of potassium sorbate (KS) degradation products against Staphylococcus aureus growth was examined in model aqueous systems. KS degradation products formation was induced by the storage at 70°C for 7 days or at 37°C for 90 days of aqueous systems containing basically brain heart...
